Set in the picturesque, provincial town Ascoli Piceno in central Italy, is a dramatic and gripping love story set in the late 1930s. Luciano, a
wounded World War I veteran and a sympathizer with fascism, runs a classy restaurant overlooking the town’s ancient square. One day, Anna appears looking for work. A young woman with a dangerous secret, she is hired to work in his restaurant. A thoughtful melodrama reflecting on fascism and the pre-war atmosphere of control and isolation.
